I can't say anything defining here, but aren't those tracks used mainly for M4 Sherman ? I've never seen Churchill's with these:

 Low bustle turret seems to match Sherman as well:

Quote The majority of Shermans converted were the Sherman V/M4A4 model, of which the British received about 7,200.





A4 means they wer originally build by Chrysler
